This map should depress Republicans

I'm not sure.  I still think Romney can do it.

So do I. 

Romney is not the buffoon that many Dems (and conservative extremists, for that matter) make him out to be.  I think that Ryan's negative impact in FL is being overstated.  Romney's a smart enough politician to realize that (1) after the dust settles, VP candidates aren't that big a deal and (2) the dire state of the economy may have sobered people up a bit, and entitlement reform may not be the "third rail" that it was when Bush43 broached it.
